Personally, I'd prefer to live in Canada and get paid USD.
The only reason I brought up the 'residency' aspect was because the hiring manager said HR was telling him, it's illegal to pay me in USD unless I live in the US.
So I was wondering are there options around this, or is this truly a legal issue or a HR policy issue.
When HR told him it was "illegal" I was trying to understand what specifically was illegal in their mind and why.

It is not illegal. HR at most any firm will tell you they can't do it because the payroll system they are using is simply incapable.
But it is not illegal.
